Abstract :
The problem of the current density in cathode arc spots is briefly reviewed by a discussion of the principal experimental procedures and several theoretkal aspects. Average current densities of (typically) some 1011 A/m2 up to more than 1012 A/m2 seem to be the most probable values in the case of arc spots on clean surfaces.
